Save and Share Your Favorite Voices
With the new save and share options on voice talent websites at Voices.com, you'll be able to contact, organize and help promote voices you like. Want to know more?
Over the weekend, we updated the website to include some new features which are exhibited on all voice talent websites at Voices.com.
Here's a picture displaying the new features:
Let's break it down feature by feature.
RSS Feed
The first one that you see is an orange RSS feed icon. This means that you are able to subscribe to voice talent websites via an RSS feed, essentially sending you email alerts when talents you have subscribed to have updated their voice over demos at Voices.com. You can think of this like receiving a Google News alert or being subscribed to a blog. Every time a change is made or a new demo is added by that talent, you will be notified.
Send an Email
This link is associated with voice talent contact boxes at Voices.com. Any messages sent from you via this form will be delivered to the respective voice talents email address presented as a business inquiry. Talent will receive the email immediately and will recognize that your email was submitted to them through our service.
Add to Favorites
Hear a voice that you like? You can archive voice samples in your Voices.com accounts by saving the talent to your Favorites. Locating talent that you have saved is easy and ensures that you will remember who they are and have a means to contact the voice pros for future work.
Print this Page
This is a handy tool for people who like to organize business activities and prospects both on and offline via filing systems or in portfolios. It's also easy to print off a page and show it to colleagues or project managers as source material.
Add to del.icio.us
Here's how the team at del.icio.us describes their bookmarking tool:
del.icio.us is a social bookmarking website -- the primary use of del.icio.us is to store your bookmarks online, which allows you to access the same bookmarks from any computer and add bookmarks from anywhere, too. On del.icio.us, you can use tags to organize and remember your bookmarks, which is a much more flexible system than folders.
You can also use del.icio.us to see the interesting links that your friends and other people bookmark, and share links with them in return. You can even browse and search del.icio.us to discover the cool and useful bookmarks that everyone else has saved -- which is made easy with tags.
Digg This
Digg, another social bookmarking tool, describes their website as follows:
Digg is all about user powered content. Every article on digg is submitted and voted on by the digg community. Share, discover, bookmark, and promote the news that's important to you!
After you submit content, other digg users read your submission and digg what they like best. If your story rocks and receives enough diggs, it is promoted to the front page for the millions of digg visitors to see.
In essence, your adding a talent to del.icio.us or submitting their website to Digg is a vote of popularity, confidence, and a way to show your appreciation for their work. It's just like a referral, but one that is published for the world to see.
So, there you have it. Imagine the possibilities!
Helping others to help promote their voices online has never been easier, especially when receiving mass promotion on a global scale is possible by utilizing these tools.
If you have any questions, feel free to submit them as comments on the blog. That way, we can address them here and help start a conversation :)
Thanks,
